Answer:

D.Lowering the temperature is the best option.

Explanation:

The value of equilibrium constants aren't changed with change in the pressure or concentrations of reactants and products in equilibrium. The only thing that changes the value of equilibrium constant is a change of temperature.

In the reaction below for example;

A + B <==>C+D

If you have moved the position of the equilibrium to the right (and so increased the amount of C and D), why hasn't the equilibrium constant increased?

Let's assume that the equilibrium constant mustn't change if you decrease the concentration of C - because equilibrium constants are constant at constant temperature. Why does the position of equilibrium move as it does?

If you decrease the concentration or pressure of C, the top of the Kc expression gets smaller. That would change the value of Kc. In order for that not to happen, the concentrations of C and D will have to increase again, and those of A and B must decrease. That happens until a new balance is reached when the value of the equilibrium constant expression reverts to what it was before.

Ca(s) + O₂(g) + S(s) → CaSO4(s)

The mass of Calcium required to complete this reaction is 4.008 g.

Law of conservation of mass states that In a closed system, mass cannot be produced or destroyed, but it can be changed from one form to another.
The mass of the chemical constituents before a chemical reaction is equal to the mass of the constituents after the reaction.
In several disciplines, including chemistry, mechanics, and fluid dynamics, the idea of mass conservation is widely applied.

In the given reaction mass of product after completion of reaction is 13.614 g that means total mass of constituents before reaction should also be 13.614.

So,

mass of Ca + mass of O₂ + mass of S = mass of CaSO4

Ca + 6.400 g + 3.206 g = 13.614 g

mass of Ca = 13.614 - 9.606 = 4.008 g

Therefore, by law of conservation of mass 4.008 g of Ca is required for the completion of the reaction.

Does the identity of an atom change if we add or subtract electrons or neutrons? Explain.

AURORKA [14]

Adding or removing neutrons from the nucleus are how isotopes are created. Protons carry a positive electrical charge and they alone determine the charge of the nucleus. Adding or removing protons from the nucleus changes the charge of the nucleus and changes that atom's atomic number.

How many milliliters of an aqueous solution of 0.170 M ammonium carbonate is needed to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt

Citrus2011 [14]

There will be needed 982.35 mL of solution to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt.There will be needed mL of

Why?

In order to calculate how many milliliters are needed to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt given its concentration, we first need to find its chemical formula which is the following:

$(NH_{4})2CO_{3}$

Now that we know the chemical formula of the substance, we need to find its molecular mass. We can do it by the following way:

$N_{2}=14g*2=28g\\\\2H_{4}=2*1g*4=8g\\\\C=12.01g*1=12.01g\\\\O_{3}=15.99g*3=47.97g$

We have that the molecular mass of the substance will be:

$MolecularMass=\frac{28g+8g+12.01g+47.97g}{mol}=95.98\frac{g}{mol}$

Therefore, knowing the molecular mass of the substance, we need to calculate how many mols represents 16.1 grams of the same substance, we can do it by the following way:

$mol_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}=\frac{mass_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}}}{molarmass_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}}}$

$mol_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}=\frac{16.1g}{95.98\frac{g}{mol}}=0.167mol$

Finally, if we need to calculate how many milliliters are needed, we need to use the following formula:

$M=\frac{moles_{solute}}{volume_{solution}}$

$M=\frac{moles_{solute}}{volume_{solution}}\\\\volume_{solution}=\frac{moles_{solute}}{M}$

Now, substituting and calculating, we have:

$volume_{solution}=\frac{0.167mol}{0.170\frac{mol}{L}}\\\\volume_{solution}=0.982L=0.982L*1000=982.35mL$

Henc, there will be needed 982.35 mL of solution to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt.

Have a nice day!
